There don't seem to be any comments on this thread referring to rationing.

And FYI energy rationing has been one policy consideration for decades.

UK gov energy rationing proposal [1] 'Personal carbon allowances [2]

There's always discussion about this sort of thing, it's not fear mongering to point out that fact.

Trivially falsifiable statement, just read the comments in this thread:

>> But their great idea to deal with the shortage is intermittent availability of power.

In other words: rationing.

One possible reference to rationing - that is actually not a reference to rationing - does not infer that the thread is loaded with Telegaph-esque rants about rationing.

You're doubling down on the misrepresentation.

There are zero references to rationing on this thread - and yet the top commenter calling this out as some kind of 'Telgraph-equ' nonsnes.

'Intermittent availability of power' - is absolutely not a reference to 'rationing' and if it were, it wouldn't be any kind of basis for hyperbole over 'rationing'.

I gave evidence of two examples of govenmental policies around rationing, and it's definitely not via 'power outages' - that's absurd - rolling blackouts only happen during emergency situations.

You've stated that the conversations has tilted to 'rationing' is 'trivially falsifiable' and at the same time haven't produced any evidence.
